they distinctly declared thati it vas a shame

longer when they desired it 20 strongly and
had shown such admirable compliance
With the laws OF the United States as the
Constitution they had just adopted gave
evidence of. At the same time they must
have known that the Mormon priesthood
engineered the Constitutional convention;
that the anti-polygamy feature Of 1t was a
farce and that plural marriages are going
on all the time. If they know anything OF

ought to zee that the desire OF the Nor.

Federal interference which at present il

laws of the United States which would be
ignored aud treated with ridicule by the
chiefs OF Mormonism as soon as they got
control OF everything under Statehood
and were freed from the checks and re-
straists OF Federal supervision. Governor
Vests lucid exposition Of the situation in
Utah in his annual report is clear on this
subject. He says: 1T will be observed
that the movement for Statehood was in
augurnted by leaders OF the Mormon peo-
pie. Their representatives alone took part
in the deliberations of the Convention.
and only that portion of the people OF
the Territory favoring Mormonism were

MAKE HASTE SLOWLY.

The city will b. working under a new
charter, with enlarged boundaries. next
spring. The elimination OF the objection
able features OF the incorporation voted
down last spring ensures this. A petition
could be circulated on the streets to.mOr-
row and the requisite number of signatures
obtained before dinner for an election to
be held in thirty days, by which this could
be accomplished. But the general under
standing is that the present officers may
serve out their terms. Consequently, there
will be no effort to re~incorporate until
next spring. In the meanwhile the present
City Council would act wisely in not tying
the hands VI their successors who.
under the enlarged powers OF the
new charter. will be able to
deal more lntelligently and lib
orally in the matter of public improve.
ments. The contract for street lighting by
electric lamps has expired, it is true. but
the present arrangement can be continued
On existing terms until the new charter
comes into effect. Nothing is lost by
deferring action for the present, and the
one or two additional lamps where their
presence is absolutely needed can be added
to those now furnishing light, which will
satisfy all present requirements. The City
Council will earn the thanks OF the citizens,
therefore. by abandoning the move to SUBJ
stitute gas for electric lamps and leaving
the matter just as it is for the present.

THIS city will average uine blocks 10 each
direction. This gives e~ighty-one crossings.
There would be two lamps at each crossing,
making 1852 to begin with. That. at So so
each lamp, would amount to $4O5. But
this would not be half enough to light the
streets with gas. 1t would need at least
two and often o along each block. That
means an additional amount of from four
to six hundred dollars. Here is anywhere
from eight hundred to a thousand dollars q
month for a service that is bound to be
totally unserviceable in foggy or extremely
cold weather when it is most needed. How
do the citizens like this prospect? Place
against this the perfect service of, say,
twenty electric lamps at $18 each, amount.
ing to only $500 q month and where is the
comparison?

The new le-sees of the electric light plant
have given great satisfaction over the pre-
vious management. To substitute gas 10,
street lighting would seriously cripple them
and impair the benefit enjoyed by private
consumers under the new control. This
would he a retrograde move. In an age o.
progress we ought to advance instead
ut receding. Every one knows
the superiority in cleanliness and
brilliancy OF electric lighting over gas. It il
in contemplation to enlarge the efficiency of
he electric plant and by the addition of the
~incandescent system bywhich private houses
and Offices can be lighted more efficiently
than by gas. If the electric plant ~lessees'
revenues arr cut down by the loss of the
street lighting the prospect OF tire introduc-
ton OF the Improvement mentioned will be
diminished, perhaps dissipated entirely.
In the interest OF progress, therefore, the
electric street lamps should be maintained.

INSPECTION.
Conn anies A and b Of the First Montana

Conn anies A and b Of the First Montana
Regiment Inspected Last Night.
Promptly last evening at 8 p. m. Briga-
dier General Warren OF the Governors
staff, escorted BY Adjutant l.. E. Holmes.
and Captain H. C. Kessler, OF Company F,
proceeded to Armo.y Hail where Com
panies A and B of the Montana Militia
were ready awaiting the officers for the pur.
pose OF being inspected. The Emmett
Guards were the first to receive the atten-
ton OF Acting Inspector General Warren.
The company went through the manual OF
arms after which they vent through some
very fire evolutions, when they wer drawn
up for inspection. General Warren, hav-
which Numbered SO m'n and three Officers.
called forward Captain Branagan OF the
Emmett Guards and made the I Glowing
happy remarks: captain B%ranagan,
officers and soldiers of Company B.: To
night / have been most happily
disa ppointed at the splendid movements
and the manner in which O went through
the manual Of arms. You have shown to
those present that you need not be
ashamed Of belonging to Company B, as
it is an honor to belong to such a C ,mpany
VI LIE no VOu have SuO"u yourselves TO

Adjutant Holmes and Captain Kessler
were then presented to the by
Captain Branagan. The Emmets we'll de-
served the applause ard compliments
which we're bestowed upon them On every
hand after the inspection. Captain Blake
then had his company drawn in line. and
they performed some very fine evolutions,
besides going through the manual Of arms.
General Warren conplimented Captain
Blake for the able manner in which he han
died his men. The only regret was that a
great many who belonged to the
Union Guards could not turn out
as they have to work at nights. They,
however. had ~thirty-one men in line. Butte

A RETRO A MOVE.

The City Council Accept u Five Tear Con-
tract With the Gas Company to light
The City-Feeding the City Prisoners
Regulating Express and Wood Wagons
The City Council he'd another special
meeting last night, chiefly to close up the
gas business. There were present. Messrs.
Lloyd, Loeber, Batesaan. Owsley and Vail
ton.
The Clerk read an ordinance he had pre-.
pared, providing no express or wood
wagons should be allowed to stand on
streets within the fire limits, and fixing a
fine OF not less than 81 nor more than $40
for breaches of the ordin nee.
Mr.. Lloyd thought the ordinance now in
force covers all necessary ground, except rs
regards wood and empty wagons on Park
street.
Mr.. Loeber took the same ground, but
thought the Emit OF the fue SHOULD be ill.,
creased to $50.
Mr.. Owsley said h%ethought, as the Mayor
was not present to sin the gas contract,
action should be deferred until his return,
The Clerk read the contract, which he
had prepared, which provides that the
Butte Gas Co. shall furnish 100 lights, or
as many more as are r. quired, not less
than sixteen candle power gas; those on
streets where the Company have mains to
De put up within sixty days, and where
tnoy nave not mains, to be put up within
ninety days: The contract is to run five
year rs from date, and the charge for lights
to be $3.50 per month each lamp.
Mr.. Loeber said it was unnecessary m
wait for the Mayors return, as all action
OF the Council would be legal.
Mr.. Bateman said that in case the con-
tract was signed, it was the company's in
tentlon to put in the same kind of posts
as tnat IN iron OF the Arcade saloon. and
they were anxious for immediate action,
as they wanted to begin their work at
once. After a good deal Of desultorv taIk |

became infuriated? Is it any wonder they
sureed into Trafalgar Square and listened
to speeches from their leaders7 OF
course the police charged them to
dispense them, and of course
the mob resisted. OF course the represent.
atives of the majesty OF the law came off
victorious, routed the mob, made arrests
and sent many manned and wounded to
the hospital.
But this will not cure the hunger of the
unemployed. Hitherto they have suffered
and died in secret and filed q pauper's
grave quietly. They will not do 80 any
longer. The radicalism that has pervaded
all ranks OF the working classes in England
for years crops out here. They owe their
depressed condition to causes which they
believe capable Of being reached by
'egislation and they demand attention
now. To them, it should be one of the
first duties of government to provide en-
ployment for all laboring classes. If it
does not directly furnish the employment
its legislation should be so directed as to
give the home workingman good wages and
plenty Of work. In fact. they are protec-
t~ionists. They hav gone peaceably to
the municipal legislature hitherto and they
have been denied. Will they rest content
with denial and police clubs when they as
semble to give utterance to their griev-
ancesP Hardly. The coming winter may
see the famished pooro the largest metrop-
oils in the world, driven to desperation by
want and a sense of theutter helplessness OF

Mr.. Campbell objected to the question.
Mr.. Napton held that the defendants

had no legal right to contract partnership,
and to prove coverture he des red to estab'
